Medman7 Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Money. It is always going to worth at least face value and most of the of times only goes up in value. I find it a safe investment. I usually but people birth year proof sets when their children are born. It sparks new collectors some times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five0pd310 Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I'm not actively collecting baseball cards but I have thousands of them that I'm proud to have. My son collects seeds. His favorites are Avacado seeds and acorns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bleedsbluengold24 Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 This may not come as a surprise to those who know what I do, but I collect patches from professional fire departments. It kind of started by accident. Before I knew it, I had quite a collection. I also collect antique metal signs, many of which are displayed at our restaurant. I make the servers pay for them with their tips (not really, just thought I'd see if Dave-O was reading my posts). :whome: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Immortal13 Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Bleeds, what is the name of your restaurant if you don't mind my asking? Oh, and I don't collect anything anymore. I had a very impressive baseball card collection as a teen that I had stolen. Haven't had the heart to collect anything since.....well besides ducks and duck bands(a very small collection) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
